Set up Queso
1. Create Your Account
- Visit https://quesobookmarks.com and click Get started.
- Sign up with email + password or continue with Google/Apple. This creates your personal workspace.
- Pick the plan that matches your usage
- Once completed, you will be taken to the dashboard for API key creation.
2. Generate an API Key
Inside the dashboard click "+ Create key" then copy the generated key for next steps.
API tokens are shown only once—copy them immediately and store securely in a password manager. If lost, create a new one. You can rotate or revoke tokens anytime to manage access safely.
3. Install the Extension
Install the offical Queso Bookmarks extension from the Chrome Web Store.
Pinning the extension makes so the extension is always visible in the toolbar.
4. Configure the Extension
- Right-click the Queso extension icon and choose Options.
- Paste the API token you generated into the API token field.
- Click Save
The extension immediately validates the token and will sync across all devices that have the extension installed and a valid API key configured.
5. Start Bookmarking
Click the extension icon on any page, Queso Bookmarks will then use the current browsers tab's content to auto-populate a bookmark form. Once saved, the bookmark will be added and available for management within Queso.
Manage Bookmarks
Open the Bookmark's page to search, filter and add notes to your saved bookmarks. All notes and article highlights are available to manage on the Notes page.
